FTP Programs

amy

Hey!

I'm in the market for some FTP programs. I've tried Filezilla, but it's just not for me. Does anybody have any suggestions? (and command lines if possible...)

Are you looking for an FTP server, or a client?

If you are looking for a client then try gFTP.  It is a nice clean layout and looks similar to core ftp for windows.Code:
sudo apt-get install gftp
You can always use the command line for quick access to an ftp server.Code:
ftp mysite.com
Just type help to get a list of commands.

client.

I didn't realize that the choices were so limited.

None of them really do much for me, but I'll just have to get used to them.

nautilus is already an ftp browser (use places\connect to server) , a very good one if you ask. I guess it depends on opinion though, but being so integrated with the system it really works well for me.

Me too.  I use it to upload all sorts of stuff to my web sites.  Just today I uploaded some pics of the back yard for my mother to see while I was talking to her.  (she wants to see my flower garden, as I have a nice flower bed in the back).

Nautilus works great as far as I am concerned.

Wow! It's not half bad.

Have you tried CrossFTP? (Sun Java required)Code:
